Given the success of the 190 SL and the marketability of the 300 SL, it is no wonder Mercedes-Benz was eager to announce the W113 generation SL-Class in the summer of 1963. The new 230 SL proved more than up to the task of succeeding its 190 SL predecessor. A fuel-injected 2.3L Inline-6, later enlarged to 2.5L and, eventually, 2.8L, ensured performance was in line with buyer desires and expectations. Paul Bracqs timeless styling which included a unique, slightly concave Pagoda hardtop helped ensure the W113 SL quickly won over the hearts of period celebrities and other wealthy buyers.

By December 1967, the company introduced the 280 SL. The larger engine kept performance figures up while also allowing for desirable comfort features including power steering and air conditioning. Like the SLs that came after, the W113 SL proved to be perfectly capable of acting as a sports car one moment and a luxury vehicle the next due to its exceptional suspension tuning and easily accessible power. Naturally, these cars have become increasingly desirable over the years, with values of high-quality examples growing dramatically. Between this and their endlessly enjoyable driving experience, W113 SL-Classes are superb vehicles for any discerning collector or enthusiast.

The exquisite 1970 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL Roadster featured here is in stunning Maroon Metallic over a Parchment interior with a Black folding convertible top and a matching body-color removable hardtop. This investment-grade 280 SL roadster has been beautifully restored and drives and performs incredibly well. This is an incredible opportunity to own one of the nicest examples we've come across in some time. I personally believe the investment potential of these highly sought-after Mercedes-Benz roadsters will grow beyond your imagination. Offered to the most demanding collector, investor, or enthusiast who appreciates and understands the rarity and investment potential of this iconic motorcar!
